My Autistic Son’s Journey with School

This week's episode is an update on how Dylan has been getting on at his new school. The challenges we have to face, the mistakes I made along the way, and what's keeping us positive!

We've made a few other episodes about schools and choosing the right one for Dylan, please go check them out:

If you're new to my channel, welcome to the family, and thank you for watching our video. Here's a little bit about me, I am a wife, a mother of three beautiful children, and a former actress. Following my eldest son (Dylan)'s diagnosis of ASD, I threw myself into knowing all there was to know about Autism and how to help him. After 6 years of research, I wrote my first book 'Coming Home to Autism', with my friend and speech therapist, Rhian Grounds. My mission is to help support and inspire parents of special needs children!

Please feel free to write in our comments if you'd like to share your story or if have any questions regarding Autism.
